Independent measures ANOVA:
A researcher wants to test whether having a healthy breakfast will help children do better on an exam. To test this, the researcher recruits 60 students. She then randomly assigns each student to either receive a healthy breakfast, an unhealthy breakfast, or no breakfast. Then, she gives each student an exam. The researcher records the participants’ scores on the exam. The results are given below. Test whether the type of breakfast (healthy, unhealthy, no breakfast) was associated with differences in exam scores at a .05 level of significance.
